MONDO EXTRAS

An audience member notes that the NY cast seems relaxed, and asks if they have any advice to give to the other casts. Actually, the question he asked was really long and boring, so I edited it down for you. You're welcome. Julie says that the show is "emotionally grueling" and that their first reunion was "yucky." Hey, I remember that! They all came on and introduced videos, and it was pretty tense. Julie says it just takes time. In an interview, Becky says there's a period after the show where you feel like you belong to the world, and you have to have a sense of humor or you'll go crazy. David says they have all done so much in their lives, that in coming back, they just laugh and say, "It was bull. Let's move on."

Alison Stewart brings out the London cast, how have just finished their season. Everyone but Jay files out. They don't have a couch, so they just have to perch on the arms of the other couches and on the floor. Judd says that the London cast being there was a complete surprise. Norm was happy to meet the London cast, and he heard about a tongue that got bit off. He thought Neil was wild and crazy, but also cute. Norm is always scoping the hotties, isn't he?

Alison lets each cast member say something. Mike cut that god-awful haircut he had during the season. He says he is still racing cars and he's back in college. Jacinda has been modeling and she got her pilot's license. Lars is still a DJ and he's been producing records. When Neil is introduced all the girls scream and he is taken aback. He says he is doing psychology research and "writing rude songs." Someone asks about his tongue and we see the clip of it getting bit off. Neil says that he was at a gig and a guy was hassling him, so he kissed him and the guy went psycho and bit his tongue off. Sharon has been travelling, and she's moving to LA. She is holding Legend, their dog, who is no Gouda or Leroy. Kat looks so different than she did on Challenge 2000. She looks a lot better now. Anyway, she is back at NYU and looking at graduate school in archaeology. Alison asks about Jay, who is doing a play and couldn't make it. Someone asks if anything happened between Neil and Kat. Kat says the possibility kind of ended with the tongue incident. Then they both says no, and that they are just friends.
